| At the investiture ceremony, the postulants are not only invested in the habit, but they also receive a new name. Here at left, Larry Napier is shown receiving the grey habit of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal from Fr. Glenn Sudano, novice master. Larry will now be known as Br. Malachy Joseph. At right are the newly invested Br. Oisín Emmanuel and Br. Declan Joseph, who came from Ireland to join the friars. | |

| Our seventeen new novices will spend their novitiate year at Most Blessed Sacrament Friary in Newark, New Jersey. | |
